Get a 3" so can have some extra to get some tires faster

If your springs are really good already then can do aal. If not then get the full spring packs with it. I've just got the basic 3" lift from then and no problems at all. About to install the 4.5" x series with rear shackles this weekend since my springs are didn't didn't need the 4,5" packs. If you go with rc talk to Jason that works there. He also on the forum here name is grimus. You will get a discount when order through him. With the 4.5" x lift I ordered got it for $650 after shipping and everything

Go with the rc 3.5" Lift with full packs. Also you are gunna want a steering stabilizer that they offer. With this option, you font need see or extended DS, you can clear 31's, and it's upgradable to 4.5" with 1 inch spacers and shackles if you ever wanted more lift.

The kit you mentioned is Rubicon Express, they just started selling again. Check out www.rubiconexpress.com to find part numbers.
RE With AAL:RE6020 $383.79 shipped with Coupon: CC5OFF

RE With Full Leafs:RE6025 $675.83 shipped with Coupon: CC5OFF
http://www.4wheelparts.com/Lift-Kits...pn=R%2fERE6025

Check the vendors section on here to see if any of the Rubicon Express vendors can do you a better price than that, or match it. They could probably get you shocks at a good price. Personally though I would find some JK Wrangler take off shocks. They are some of the best shocks I've had on my Cherokee.
